C   Gsus4   Am   F

Verse 1:

C                                            Gsus4

I walked through the door with you, the air was cold

Am                                     F

But something 'bout it felt like home somehow, and I,

C                                        Gsus4

Left my scarf there at your sister's house

Am                           F

And you still got it, in your drawer, even now

C   Gsus4    Am   F

C                                     Gsus4

Oh your sweet disposition and my wide eyed gaze

Am                                 F

We're singing in the car getting lost upstate

C                                               Gsus4

Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place

Am                          F

And I can picture it after all these days

C                                          Gsus4

And I know it's long gone and, that magic's not here no more

Am                                  F              Gsus4

And I might be okay but I'm not fine at all-all-all
Chorus 1:

C                                      Gsus4

'Cause there we are again on that little town street

Am                                          F

You almost ran the red 'cause you were lookin' over at me

C                  Gsus4               Am        F

Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well

C                                        Gsus4

Photo album on the counter your cheeks were turning red

Am                                F

You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin size bed

C                                 Gsus4

And your mother's telling stories 'bout you on a t-ball team

Am                              F

You taught me 'bout your past thinkin' your future was me

C                                  Gsus4

And you were tossing me the car keys, fuck the patriarchy

Am                                   F

Key chain on the ground, we were always skipping town

C                                         Gsus4

And I was thinking on the drive down, any time now

Am                                             F

He's gonna say it's love, you never called it what it was

C

'Til we were dead and gone and buried

Gsus4                                          Am

Check the pulse and come back swearing it's the same

F

After three months in the grave

C                                          Gsus4

And then you wondered where it went to as I reached for you

Am                                          F

But all I felt was shame and you held my lifeless frame

C                                               Gsus4

And I know it's long gone and it was nothing else I could do

Am                                 F                        Gsus4

And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed to-oo-oo

C                                     Gsus4

'Cause here we are again in the middle of the night

Am                                F

We're dancing 'round the kitchen in the refrigerator light

C          Gsus4             Am      F

Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well

C                            Gsus4

And there we are again when nobody had to know

Am                                    F

You kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath

C

Sacred prayer, and we'd swear

Gsus4              Am             F

To remember it all too well, yeah

C   Gsus4   Am   F   Gsus4

C                                        Gsus4

Maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much

Am                          F

But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up

C                  Gsus4          Am      F

Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well

C                     Gsus4

And you call me up again just to break me like a promise

Am                          F

So casually cruel in the name of being honest

C                     Gsus4

I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lyin' here

Am        F

Cause I remember it all, all, all

C

They say all's well that ends well

Gsus4                          Am                  F

But I'm in a new hell every time you double-cross my mind

C                   Gsus4                                      Am

You said if we had been closer in age maybe it would have been fine

F

And that made me want to die

C

The idea you had of me, who was she?

Gsus4                             Am                       F

A never-needy ever lovely jewel whose shine reflects on you

C

Not weeping in a party bathroom

Gsus4            Am              F

Some actress asking me what happened, you, that's what happened, you

C                                          Gsus4

You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes

Am                                          F

Sipping coffee like you're on a late night show

C                                          Gsus4

But then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you to come

Am                                          F

And he said, "It's supposed to be fun turning twenty-one"
Instrumental:

C    Gsus4    Am    F

C                                Gsus4

Time won't fly it's like I'm paralyzed by it

Am                                          F

I'd like to be my old self again but I'm still tryin' to find it

C                                          Gsus4

After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own

Am                                          F

Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone

C                                          Gsus4

But you keep my old scarf from that very first week

Am                                          F

'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me

C               Gsus4              Am         F

You can't get rid of it 'cause you remember it all too well

C                                          Gsus4

'Cause there we are again when I loved you so

Am                                                F

Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known

C                     Gsus4        Am     F

It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well

C                                          Gsus4

Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it all

Am F

Down the stairs, you were there, you remember it all

C                    Gsus4          Am     F

It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well

And I was never good at telling jokes but the punch line goes

F                       Gsus4

I'll get older but your lovers stay my age

C Am

From when your Brooklyn broke my skin and bones

F                          Gsus4

I'm a soldier who's returning half her weight

C                               Am

And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?

F                             Gsus4

Just between us, did the love affair maim you too?

C                               Gsus4

Cause in this city's barren cold, I still remember the first fall of snow

F               C          Am

And how it glistened as it fell, I remember it all too well

F              Gsus4            C      Am

Just between us, did the love affair maim you all too well?
